Switching Mechanism for an Outdoor Robotic Tool
20200128750 · 2020-04-30 ·

An outdoor robotic tool (100) comprising a switching assembly (104) comprising a carry handle (106) and a stop button (108) is disclosed. The carry handle (106) and stop button (108) are connected such that the raising of the carry handle (106) results in the stop button (108) being activated and vice versa. The activation of the stop button (108) results in the outdoor robotic tool (100) being rendered inoperable in some way. A lift-indication mechanism (126) may be present, which renders the outdoor robotic tool (100) inoperable if it is lifted. Either or both of the switching assembly (104) and lift-indication mechanism (126) may be present on the outdoor robotic tool (100).

PIVOTING SEAT BELT SYSTEM
20200130637 · 2020-04-30 ·

A pivoting seat belt system includes a seat belt retractor and a seat belt receiver, each of which are pivotably mounted to a head of a bracket that is pivotably mounted to a ROPS located behind an operator seat of a zero turn mower. The head of each bracket restricts the angle of pivoting of the seat belt retractor and seat belt receiver, and a slot in each bracket restricts the angle of pivoting on the ROPS.

Retractable canopy for a vehicle
10618391 · 2020-04-14 · ·

A retractable canopy for a vehicle, the retractable canopy moving independently of a vehicle roll bar being retracted or raised. Canopies for weather protection both from excessive exposure to the sun and from precipitation are commonly used on many types of vehicles, which in many cases may be motorized. For safety reasons, and often also legal requirements, these vehicles may be equipped with a roll bar or similar structure to protect the operator of the vehicle from injury in the event that the vehicle rolls over. When the vehicle encounters a low-lying obstruction, the canopy may be quickly lowered to enable the vehicle to travel underneath and past the obstruction, after which the canopy may be quickly raised again. Raising or lowering of the canopy is independent of whether the roll bar is raised or lowered, and raising or lowering of the roll bar is independent of the canopy position.
